Cambridge will never be the same

[misfish]

Well it would seem I and a fellow worker, have been selected to go and learn robotic weld cell traing.FINALLY.

I and John have done very well, blind wise so far,but now are going to learn the ins and outs.

SO,we will be there for 4 days next week(Monday til Thursday) and need a few pointers on the where and not to eat.

I did a bit of research so far.

Our first dinner night will be at PHO NAM. Yes/no? I gots to get my PHO fill.

 

Also,I am aware that Camebridge is also known as little Newfoundland .This might scare my little buddy,but I,ll keep him safe.LOL

 

So,any help? We would be greatly thankful.

 

Im hopeing to hook up with an old hockey buddy I played with in the late 70,s.Just waiting to hear back.

 

Thanks

 

 

Oh I forgot.

Is there any local jr.hockey going on those days? Rangers playing?

I would love to travel to Newhamburg to watch a game.

Lotsa Jr at all levels from Major on down. Take yer pick. I can't remember if NH has any kind of Jr team these days. I should. It's only a 10 minute drive but with so many teams around we just don't need to drive anywhere. We have a strong Jr B club here in Stratford. They've been pulling a Toronto the last few years but before that they were among the best pretty consistently with the likes of Chris Pronger & Eddy Olczek among the host of quality players who spent a year or two here. If we want Major we just have to drive a few miles down the road to Kitchener. You're only a very quick drive from the Kitchener arena when you're in Cambridge. It's right off the Parkway.

For places to eat it has just about everything. Nothing special, nothing horrible (that I know of). Are you taking the course @ B&W?

 

For Hockey, Jr. B is Saturday night but on Wednesday the Kitchener Rangers are playing the Guelph Storm. Just a short Drive to the arena.

Cambridge one closed 2 years ago.

If you get the chance to see a game at the old barn in Galt, where the Winterhawks play, don't miss it. This building is the oldest one in North America and pre-dates MLG.

I can't believe they're still playing there. It was old when I played. It should be a museum now, or be in one.

I haven't been inside since I last coached about 20 years ago. I love old style arenas. We have a classic here in Stratford. The've poured a lot of money into it which is almost unfortunate because they are getting farther and farther away from what it once was. I remember years ago a buddy of mine came back with his kid's team to play some exhibition games with our kids. He said he had played in every professional arena in North America (at the time) and there wasn't a nicer old style arena in existance.
